Prof. Hafsa El Bekri traveled to Sharm el-Sheikh for COP27 to represent Euromed University of Fes at this global meeting which brought together around 200 countries, delegations, media, NGOs, companies, observers, and researchers. The objective of this African COP is to place new actions to combat global warming and its impacts on the negotiation agenda.
Prof. Hafsa El Bekri also published a pre-COP op-ed entitled "From Marrakech to Sharm El-Sheikh: Africa at the center of the climate agenda" in Challenge Magazine, in which she raises, among other things, the role of RIEMAS (Research Institute for European, Mediterranean and African Studies) Think Tank of UEMF in studying the new narrative of climate action in and for Africa.
As a reminder, the first African COP was held in Marrakech in 2016, after which the UEMF eco-campus received the COP22 Label for its ecological assets and compliance with environmental and sustainable development standards (lower energy consumption, integration of renewable energy technologies, maximum natural light, recycling, green spaces...).
